FBI Seeks Collaboration to Arrest Adediran, Nigerian Fugitive 

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has announced a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Olumide Adebiyi Adediran, a Nigerian national wanted for violating his release conditions.

Adediran fled the United States in December 2001, just before his trial on charges of bank fraud, identity document fraud, and credit card fraud.

Adediran allegedly attempted to withdraw funds from a bank in Champaign, Illinois, using a fraudulent check and opened bank and credit card accounts with stolen identities.

He is considered a high flight risk and has been evading capture for over two decades.

Adediran is known to have used several aliases, including Kevin Olumide Adediran, Eric O. Williams, Stephen Dediyi, Maxo Alexandre, and Olumide Adkins, among others.

He is described as 5’11” tall, 200 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. His last known location was in the Central District of Illinois.

The FBI urges anyone with information about Adediran’s whereabouts to contact their local FBI office or submit a tip anonymously through the FBI’s website.

The reward will only be paid upon arrest and conviction.
